What is the Cost of Rhinoplasty if Done in Conjunction with Insurance Covered Septoplasty? (photo)

Rhinoplasty prices vary greatly
because the rhinoplasty procedure itself encompasses a wide range of
techniques that can be performed to different extents.Therefore the cost
range is pretty wide from $6000-$12,000. My recommendation is to first
find qualified surgeons   that are board certified by the American Board
of Plastic Surgery or the American Board of Otolaryngology. Find one or
two surgeons you trust, then compare prices between them. Factors that
influence the price include:
1. Location - Will it be performed in a hospital with an overnight
stay, an independent out- patient facility or a doctors office?
2. Type of Anesthesia -  IV sedation or General Anesthesia? Will a
board certified anesthesiologist or a nurse anesthetist be used, or an
RN?
    
 
3. Experience and training of your surgeon. The best
trained (and longest) would be a surgeon board  certified by the
American Board of Plastic Surgery, but also consider American Board of
Otolaryngology trained surgeons
    
 4. Length and Complexity of
Surgery - Tip Rhinoplasty only or complete rhinoplasty, open or closed
technique, deviated septum repair,or breathing problems corrected, , how
long, ?etc

Dear carebear025,


If you are having breathing issues, and need reconstructive nasal surgery, this portion can be covered by your insurance

The cosmetic fee is not though

You end up saving anywhere from 25-50% depending on what is performed

The approximate cost for doing cosmetic reshaping of the nose while having functional surgery (such as septoplasty) ranges from $2500-4000 in this particular region of the country. This hybrid approach to the nose can be somewhat confusing when you try to use insurance for coverage of some parts and pay out of pocket for cosmetic work. I have provided a link below to one of the discussions in my online rhinoplasty tutorial that touches on this exact topic. Good luck.
